At OBM School, our advanced Online Business Management training programs help you develop the critical skills and confidence needed to hone in on your passion, stand out in the fast-evolving digital world, and land high-paying clients you’ll look forward to working with.

We’ll show you how to launch a thriving business that lets you live life by your own design.

Our Programs

We’ve leveraged over a decade of experience to bring you the most comprehensive Online Business Management training programs.

Our training approach walks you through every aspect of starting, launching, and growing your online business, to ensure your long-term success in the online space, and give you the ability to lead clients at the highest level.

Whether you’re totally new to online work, ready to ditch the traditional 9-5 way of working, or you’re an existing online service provider looking to gain a competitive advantage in the industry, we have a program that can guide you towards achieving your goals.

OBM School Accelerator

The Accelerator is our flagship program and it’s really where we encourage our students to start if they’re just beginning their OBM journey. Inside the Accelerator you’ll find the core learning modules- the foundation of the OBM School teaching framework- complete with templates, tutorials, implementation materials (like standard operating procedures, questionnaires and frameworks) AND 6 months of support in our private Facebook community plus twice monthly Q&A calls with our OBM School Mentors to help guide you as you build your OBM business.

This program has really encouraged me to grab the bull by the horns, run with things, and build my business properly on solid foundations so that I don’t feel like I’m winging it and promising clients things I’ve actually never done before!

It sounds super cheesy, but I genuinely wake up every morning, excited to work in my business and excited to work with my clients who I’m deeply aligned to and absolutely adore!

I landed 2 clients, and it looks like I won’t be taking on any more new client work over the next 3 months! Yesterday this was only a dream, and I was thinking “Could this be possible for me too?”. I discounted myself because of my location, but I’m so grateful for all of Sarah’s coaching and mindset work.

I signed my second client just two weeks into the program! The support inside the community really helped to motivate me, and sharing my wins gave me huge confidence. As we got all the training materials upfront, I was able to skip ahead a little in the modules to find exactly what I needed to work on in order to assist my client! It was great to be able to put together a good workflow before we begin working together.

OBM School Certification

The Certification is designed for OBMs and service support professionals who have landed their first clients and are focused on qualifying leads, keeping their pipeline full, scaling their team and advancing/improving their skills and business acumen. In addition to what’s provided in the Accelerator program, the Certification track provides hands-on support in the form of hot-seat coaching, break out training sessions, project submissions, individualized feedback and micro-credentials. Certification cohorts start quarterly and the groups are smaller.

I got certified because I wanted extra validation of my skill set. But going through certification was when the big pieces of my business finally started to fit together, and I grew more confident in my abilities.

I used to work 70 hours a week in my corporate job, and my life was so complicated. I got started as a VA, but quickly realized that I was doing the work of an OBM.

I came across Sarah’s training and felt a huge pull, but I thought I would be crazy to add more to my overflowing plate. But I jumped right in, and ended up replacing my former corporate salary in just 4 months, working only 20hrs/week. I encourage you to move forward and experience Sarah’s amazing leadership, coaching, and community!

Within 3 months into the OBM School Certification program I began converting my business to an agency style business, hired a Virtual Assistant, and hired a Social Media Manager for my business and for my clients!

I WAS CONSISTENTLY BLOWN AWAY BY THE RESOURCES IN THIS PROGRAM!

My experience with this program was powerful, meaningful, and engaging – especially the live component! We were provided with an abundance of resources to ensure our own businesses were set up for success. I instantly started using some of them with my clients!
